Anousheh’s Space Blog

September 20, 2006

Welcome to your ISS Home! Earth watched your beautiful launch on the Internet and TV. You looked great… all smiles the entire time!

Here’s my blog entry of your launch (how it looked from NASA TV).

Hugs,
Peter

My Dear Peter,

You were on my mind the entire time. I remembered our first meeting with you sitting across the table and passionately talking about goals of the X Prize foundation. I was enjoying watching you make a sales pitch with such a passion.

You had me sold from the first minute but your passion was contagious and I wanted you to finish telling your story. I arrived in the station a few hours ago and it feels like home. I have been making notes all along the launch and I will be posting a blog on the trip.

The launch was very smooth. The trip to the station felt long but it was worth it. I cannot keep my eyes off the windows. Earth is magnificent and peaceful from up here. You don’t see any of those awful things you hear on the news, from up here.

The Earth is so beautiful and if we could all see it this way I’m sure we would do everything in our power to preserve it. I truly hope that more and more people get to experience this trip first hand. But more than anyone else I hope that you will experience this trip soon, because I cannot think of a more deserving person….

Very Amazing text,I enjoy your words,
“The Earth is so beautiful and if we could all see it this way I’m sure we would do everything in our power to preserve it”
Very poweful text,I love you anoushe!!!
Cograts my dear

Your flight is inspiring millions of people around the world. Your path is really shining others path who graduate college and pursue career and then to accomplish such a great task in different way. Believe me a lot’s of people very proud of you.

Anousheh, thank you just to exist !!!! As a (tiny) supporter of the Xprize and as a space enthusiast I wish you all the very best !!! Words fail me to describe the temper, the strength, the imagination, the power, in one word the beauty that you simply radiates around. One can’t even be envious because knowing who You are You sure deserved every moment of the dream You’re living. You’re a hope and a relief to us all. Thanks again….

it seems funny, but i see a day when i’m reading a book written by you. about your journey from beginning, from the day you dreamed of space to the day you reached the space. i like to know what it takes to go to space station. last year i didn’t even know anousheh ansari but now i can’t stop thinking about her. this is just a beginning

This is Arash,a medical doctor from Iran.i wish you the best in the space.I hope after getting back from space you(as a representative of iranian people too) will dedicate the message of love and friendship of iranian people to the world despite the ideology of hatred which is being supported and expanded by some guys from inside iran.they are not the real represeantatives of iranian people in international scenes .you probably can realise who i do mean.

WoW, Fantastic.
Now in the blog’s world, we can say that there was a post which is come from furest plase to the net.
And also, it is fantastic that kind of log.
anyway, Peter, Could you send this message that Anousheh will send a photo of Earth from her point of view, and then you post it on her logs.
Best for her

This is the first blogpost from space I’ve ever read! It was a great pleasure! Thanks! By the way, did you know you’ve beaten the famous blogger Robert Scoble on Wordpress in just a few weeks of blogging?! You’re probably the fastest-growing blogger! Congrats!

Dear Anousheh - I must confess, I’m addicted..
Congratulations and I’m sure, you will enjoy every minute up there..

BTW: I like your personal mission patch very much and have it now in my office.. I like the message.. I also have a set of high quality photo prints from you on the wall too and whenever I’m asked, I tell how a dream can come true.
If I can manage it, I will try to come to Santa Cruz and hope to have a chance to meet you. Indeed, hoping someone might be interested in AMSAT-DL’s dream for the first private satellite mission to Mars.

their are so many good nice words about you, i just want to summaries it:

1. you magnify millions of people in this world because of what you have done, and
you magnify them in a good way.
2. millions of people are proud of you.
3. although you sad, that their is no politcal backgound on this trip, i am positiv that this could be one of the steps towards a more opened society in iran!
4. people thank you because of you just being you, and this is really a goodfull thing.

Just keep going like this, and help people across the world to see the “light”!

Dear Anousheh:
I just watched the news and heard that you had a safe journey and arrived in good shape at the ISS. I’m so happy for you. I too dream of going to space sometime. I have been following the news about you ever since I heard about the X-Prize.

I am 17 years old, my mother is Iranian like you (my dad is Lebanese). I was born in Washington DC and now live in Belgium. I have been passionate about space forever, and participated in a NASA youth contest aimed at building a permanent human settlement in space. My paper won the NASA Grand Prize last April and they invited me over to meet astronauts and visit the Ames Research Center in CA. It was an unforgettable experience, like your current trip must be.

You are an inspiration to many people like me. Your vision and determination are unbelievable.
Have fun up there,
Alexander

May Allah give you more life and strenghth to guide the next Generation. Into the most POSITIVE Endeaver of LIFE to explore the limitless creations of God, the Almughty. Your each step ahead hereonwards is going to bring our whole Humanity into GOOD senses and close to each other. For us you are an icon of PEACE and INSOIRATION. CONGRATULATIONS.
Your fans: feroz, shabnam, altamash, sara, and my all freids and relatives in India and Saudia.

Dear Anousheh,
I am an Iranian telecom engineer living in VA. We are all so proud of you for what you have accomplished and we admire you that inspite of all the pressure, you still took the Iranian flag to ISS and proudly mentioned to be an Iranian. Message of peace is something beyond the borders. You have inspired so many women in Iran and all around the world. May god bless you & your family.

I do not know how to start, I have being staring at my Spaceship model and thinking about you; it has been phenomenon to see what you’ve done. You have made your countrymen very proud. I am looking at my 7yr old daughter Artemis, and see you in her future. God bless you for your passion and will. Please kiss my planet Earth and tell her thank you for being a good mother and being the ONLY place in universe that could give us LIFE. Anousheh jan, enjoy your time in peace up in universe and thank you again.

We should all be there with you by now. Most of us have The Dream and the brains to make it happen. The Human race needs to grow up and get out there. It does not make sence that we elect people that act like kids and teenagers.

As you can see from your window, we all live under the same sky and same sun. If we were to put all the money allocated to killing and destroying this beautiful jewell to a real space exploration international program, together we can reach the stars.

First of all, a huge congratulations to you for all the hard work you have done to reach that point you are now, and I hope you’ll enjoy your all scientific mission, and I am eagerly waiting to see more of these from you and your hardworking family.

I know you since I was following X-Prize and then you came and boosted the project so that encouraged people to make it happen.

Since then I was watching you to see how you will finally get into space and this is it, you have reached this dream and I guess it is time to think of a new and bigger dream, and I am sure whatever it be, you will make it as well.

I also want to use this position to reach you about another space related project, as my efforts to contact you or Mr. Ansari in the past monthes weren’t successfull. I am an small participant to Project SETI (you know, www.seti.org) and a few monthes ago all participants received a mail from Dr. Arthur C. Clarke (again you know him for sure) stating that the SETI needs donations (the total was below $800K I guess) to be able to continue the project. So I thought, your family with all that space ambitions and the money might be able to help them out, but my contacts with Prodea didn’t help as you were in the trainings in Moscow, and the support staff didn’t provide me any direct contact email address.

So, I guess this comments might be read by a close relative of you, and if I am lucky, even by you, and you are the one who can help them, so please try to contact the SETI project to see if you can help or can raise donations for them.

Sorry for such a huge comment, keep the good work, and it will be nice to read something back from you.

Outstanding! Anousheh, yours is an aspiring journey for all…my family and I are thrilled for you and feel honored that we can call you a friend. Enjoy your time, safe travels home. I refer to history to help address the leadership and initiative displayed with your efforts: “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live life to the fullest.” ~ Henry David Thoreua

I’s like to take a minute and tell you how thankful I am, that there are people out there that Dream things up like the Ansari XPrize. I’m positive that because of that, Space travel will be a lot closer than people have dreamed of. I’m estatic to be alive during this time.

I Wish you a safe trip, Enjoy it, Soak it in, and Keep every part of it. I’m positive it’s Money well spent. Your living the dream.

I am so proud of you. Your dream is shared by millions. Savor every moment and never stop looking out that window. Take as many photos as you can, because before too long, you will be back home. I hope to see you soon back in Dallas, but please know that your journey is uniting people of all ages, genders, and nationalities and is making a difference. God bless you and safe travels.

With all the worry about the Space Shuttle’s return to Earth, the media here in the States have given short shrift to the journey of Anousheh Ansari, one of the Russian space agency’s paying customers. Ansari’s beaming smile should co…

hi
I’m Mohsen.do you like to have a mental experience at space:
I searched about human knowledge for 5 years.the result of my researches caused to the mathematical model that can describe the human’s beheaviours.based on this model I predict that our feeling from the critical poins of our life(very positive and very negative) can be controled better by our nervous system when we have a low feeling from our weight.in the other word “the feeling of our weight has the inversed relation with our ability to control our nervous reaction at the critical points of our life”.
you can imagine some uncontrolled reactions that you had in your life at the space,and then try to find your ability to control your.I predict that you can control your reactions better than when you were in the earth.and this in because of your feeling from your weight.
reactions more better than when you were in the earth.
regards
mohsen

I just wanted to congratulate you on achieving this milestone in your life! After reading your writings and hearing positive comments from those who know you well, I’m sure you will find/create many more dreams to follow!

I have enjoyed reading the comments about your “passion” - especially those posted by Peter Diamandis. Although I have not had the pleasure to meet Mr. Diamandis personally, he is very familiar to me at the moment since I was fortunate enough to go weightless with Zero-G just a little over a week ago on a flight for educators. I personally know that what you are experiencing - for more than those incredibly short 20 second intervals we had on the Zero-G flight - is simply indescribable and exhilarating. I hope everyone will have the opportunity to experience that someday. I have decided that I will have to find a way to experience it again - and again - and again. I think I could very easily become addicted to it! I usually am not envious of people, but those who have had the incredible opportunity to stay weightless for days or even months, command just a bit of envy from me. (Even more than ever since I have had a small taste of weightlessness myself.)

I am also thrilled that your goals correlate very closely with the goals in my personal “passion.” My passion is iSPACE (interactive, Science, sPace and Aeronautics Center for Education), an emerging science center and future home of a Challenger Learning Center. We are situated in a tri-state area where we have the potential to reach hundreds of thousands of kids as well as thousands of teachers who in turn have the potential to reach many more kids throughout their teaching careers. Sort of that multiplier effect as in the movie “Pay it Forward” and a teacher’s dream! Our mantra, “Our Vision is 2020:Our Mission is Now” demands that we have a clear vision of what we need to do at iSPACE and also serves as a reminder that we need to work as quickly and diligently as possible to excite and inspire young people to pursue STEM classes and careers. I agree with you that space exploration has the potential to be one of the greatest motivational topics to engage youngsters and is a phenomenal tool that will help us identify and solve long-term and global problems. I am living my dream by traveling with iSPACE on its journey to fruition in order to make a positive impact on the kids and educators in my community. As you can probably guess, I am passionate about my work. Therefore, I do understand how passionate people such as yourself, are driven to achieve their goals. If someone is not consumed with a passion, then they cannot even begin to comprehend the momentous occasion this flight is for you. I do - so once again I offer my sincere congratulations to you!

I wish you the very best on your flight and also with all of the wonderful things that are sure to follow. You have heeded Christa McAuliffe’s plea to “Reach for the Stars” - I have a feeling you will be doing a lot more reaching throughout your life.

Congratulations on your successful arrival at the International Space Station. Your commitment and efforts are a great inspiration, and are yeilding a fruitful harvest for you and for the many people who are following your flight. I must admit to a bit of healthy envy, but like many, am very happy for you and share your joy.

When we flew together on G-FORCE One (ZERO GRAVITY B727) last year in Ft. Lauderdale, I was pleased to meet you and learn of your passion for space.

Your flight to the ISS is remarkable. Thanks for showing us the way! I’m proud to have known you if only for short time. There are a lot of people around the world who know your on orbit experience will make the world a better place

After a two day hiatus it’s good to finally hear from you again, and by the way congratulations for finally making it to the ISS. I’m sure i watched every NASA-TV broadcast there was and it was good to see you enjoying yourself so much ( i won’t deny that i was envious every step of the way ). despite everything you know about space and space travel ( real and imagined ) i’m sure being up there is proving to be quite a revelation - and one heck of a sensory experience ( did i mention that i’m a bit jelous? ). Anyway i look forward to reading about your experiences, thoughts and feelings over the next week or so, so please feel free to write non-stop if you wish. Rest assured there will be plenty of us down here hanging on every word you write.

By the way what was it like sleeping in Zero-G ( ok, micro gravity ) for the first time? I imagine it’s probably the best sleep one can ever get. That alone just might be worth going up there

Hi Anousheh! You make my heart swell with pride for what you are doing to inspire all women to pursue their true dreams. I know you have touched my teenage girls - and they are very difficult to impress these days! I know you will enjoy every second of your trip and I hope to hear about it when you return. Eric sends his very best wishes!

I love the feeling you are giving me in reading your words, and especially how we are sharing it back on Earth on this blog amongst people from so many nations that supposedly are hostile toward one another. I only know that I like how this makes me feel, which is the true person inside most of us I know. That’s more important than anything, and what I tell my children. We’re all one as you have re-emphasized with your unique view. Thank you, Anousheh. Do not disappear, the world needs you.

It is a great accomplishment, to be sure. May your trip, you work, and your dedication be a beacon to all people of the ability to do so much, no matter what nation we come from, no matter what religion we believe, no matter our background, that we can all reach out to some day touch the stars.

Anousheh,
Wow. That’s all I can say. You are an amazing woman. Very accomplished and nice to look at too. Congratulations and good luck with your new company.
The world needs more people like you.
Don from California

Dear Anousheh, we were full of joy watching the launch , as parents it is our ultimate hope that our girls grow up to be someone just like you. Have a safe journey back. Ardeshir,Afsaneh(Vancouver,Canada)

Salam, I’d like to know, now that you are in orbit, how is the view of the stars different from the views we see from down here on earth? How much brighter are the stars, please describe all the differences that you see,

Dearest Anousheh,
I knew of you before all this started. You are the wonderful person whom sponsored so many children through Child Foundation. My husband & I have been volunteering for CF for years now & I hope to be able to meet you closely as you are my idol.
I know every organization is knocking on your door, but I hope that in the near future you will accept to support CF’s new Los Angeles Chapter.
I just can not imagine how your sponsored children in Iran would feel if they knew who you were.
I hope you realize that you have created many new dreams for women, especially Middle Eastern women. I can not wait to see what wonderful challenges you will take on with the power that comes with this new recognition.
I wish you a safe & joyful journey home & hope to hear from you.

Hello again Mrs Anoushe Ansari,
Your journey has had us to think more about the space and have more dreams for that.I’m so excited by your journey that can hardly sleep inspite of being so much tired.You have disturbed my life but this excitement worths it.I wish more people would be like you so we can taste truely the meaning of life.

This is undoubtedly a turning point in your life.From now on many ones specially many iranians are eager to follow your life.They are eager to know about your next projects and activities.

When you come back home,your journey must have been like a dream for you and you must be willing to exprience it again may be to a more far away place out there in the unlimited space.But some what far?May be to another galaxy?I’m fully eager to know about your next desires and aims.

I hope you take exact look of any details.There are few ones who have had what you are expriencing.You might see something they didn’t noticed before.Record these invaluble moments in your mind and heart and through medias.

I hope you and your family more and more success in life,
Thank you for sharing your dream with us,
Be omide to ey yegaane jaavidan,

Anousheh you are an amazing inspiration and I can’t wait to see the photos you take! You are truly living the dream and opening possibilities for us all back here on Earth 1.0! Best of luck and fair space winds!

I watched the hatch opening last night (L.A. time), I was so moved by seeing you there, it was as if I could feel what you were feeling. It’s strange for me to be following so closely somebody else’s accomplishments and having such strong feelings about it, it’s not like me. But I can feel this is something so important for me and everybody in the world, people still don’t realize how much SpaceShipOne’s flight and your flight mean, It’s a pitty that so many people are not enjoying this new milestone to which your are contributing so much and are in big part responsible for. I know very soon the whole world will be talking about this new possibility of going to space! I’m so happy for you and for myself because I know now the door to space is open for all of us and all thanks to people like you who don’t fear anything, never doubt themselves and just go for it!! Thank you Anousheh, thanks for ever! I can’t wait for my flight to happen!
Maria Entraigues (at Los Angeles)

I’ve been following your activities since you left TTI (those were great times) and your brief stint at Sonus. I can’t tell you how thankful I am to have worked with you and Hamid.

What you’ve accomplished these last couple of years staring with X Prize and now spending time at ISS is nothing short of amazing and very awe-inspiring in that you’re living your dream as we speak. You continue to inspire a great many people and are truly paving the way for future ‘tourist’ space travellers. I looked at the stars this evening and thought of you, there living your dream…WAY TO GO!!! God Bless and I hope your stay at ISS is more than everything you’ve imagined it would be.

I would begin by wishing you a happy stay in Intl. Space Station and a safe return home.

I understand that you wish to translate a book to Parsi. My wife and I are professional in this task and would be more than happy to fullfill your wish! Please do not hesitate to contact me whenever convenient.

Hi dear Anoushe,
It’s so nice that you are there, soooooo far awaaayyy from this crowded world… it’s so good that you could do what you always dreamd about and i wish i reach my dreams too
Be HaPpy & Have lots of fun in the skyyyy , now you are flying higher than every birdZz :*

What a great experience you are sure having. You are an inspiration and positive role model to girls and women everywhere. Well done. I hope you are taking a lot of pictures…and to see Atlantis reentry…awesome!

[…] Anousheh Ansari’s blog now has its first post from space, in the form of an email from Ansari to Peter Diamandis. (Some might quibble whether that counts as blogging from space, but that’s a technicality that’s lost on most people.) “I cannot keep my eyes off the windows,” she writes. “Earth is magnificent and peaceful from up here. You don’t see any of those awful things you hear on the news, from up here.” […]

Anoosheh Xaanoom:
Can’t you apply for an extension (of your visa) there for another 10 days or so? or pretend you have a headache and can’t come back on time. We will get you a good lawyer to help. They can’t “deport” you, can they? I would do some thing to stay longer. Just a thought.
Cheers

I’m really speechless ! your act was amazing . we, IRANIAN , are all proud of you . my feeling is like when i’m reading our history of 2500 years ago. your name will remain alive in history. best wishes for you in space and on earth!

Hi Ms.Ansari,
All people, now, are hurry to give you the best congratulation for your exceptional task …
But i think that a woman with your bright path have no needs of this. I retain that it would be beautiful to know your impressions and emotions simply as Anousheh had felt.
Not Anousheh the “Executive” or Anousheh the “Engineer” but simply Anousheh for herself, because, I think that your journey was more inner than people believes.I don’t believe that you have reached the stars only because you have had money to do this or simply to do experiments, let me believe that there was something of more deep.
Know your reasons and feelings, for me will be the best way to know who is Ms. Ansari and why she had reached her goals.

Am I wrong ?

P.s.: The little Iranian flag on your arm was the brighter sparkle of a better future for all.

it is so wonderful to see you realize your dream of going into space - you are an inspiration. also i admire that you recognize both iran and the united states as influences on your life, with both flags on your uniform.

Hello Mrs Anoushe…I a 20 year old boy from Iran…I have same wish as yours…I love stars and night sky and so I am an Amateur Astronomer…I study electronics in Iran…I hope to go to Mars one day and when I see you have reached your space goal I become full of energy to follow my wish that is landing on the Mars…Maybe the first one…who knows?Enjoy your wish coming true…

Hello ms ANSARI, I’m writting from France… Do you know “ANTOINE DE SAINT EXUPERY”? When I see your wonderful experience, I get the impression that “LE PETIT PRINCE” is a woman born in Iran, living in USA and offering to the Universe a so nice dream….

Hi Iam medical student. when I was 3 years old I whish that I could be an spacewoman and when I heard about you I become so happy and we all proud of you.
with best wishes. Sara Mehr Tehran

I heard your talk in Night Sky program from Channel 4 of Iran TV. I live in Tehran.
That was a really inspiring talk. I am proud to hear your point of views about your goals and your messages for the people (especially the young iranians).
I was counting the minutes to see you on Nasa TV while getting into the ISS. It was a milestone in my life.
I can not declare how much I want to see your successful return to our home; earth.

Bonjour Anousheh!!
What a thrilling adventure you’re experiencing out there in the big void! I hope you are fine and able to enjoy it completely!
I’ve read the best way for you to see the milky way is to go inside a Soyuz capsule, turn all lights off, wait for the station to be in Earth’s shadow and look through its small window.
Be part of the big picture. On tuesday morning, ISS should become visible from Belgium. I’ll think about you.

[…] The blogosphere boldly visits its newest frontier - blogging from space: The launch was very smooth. The trip to the station felt long but it was worth it. I cannot keep my eyes off the windows. Earth is magnificent and peaceful from up here. You don’t see any of those awful things you hear on the news, from up here. […]

I’m from Mexico and i just wanted to congratulate you for this incredible adventure that youre living out of space. I admire and respect you because you put a lot of effort to acomplish the training for this journey. My best wishes…and remeber…even in the space…….There’s a natural mystic blowing through the air; If you listen carefully now you will hear….

Hi,I`m an iranian girl and i hope you will be happy there,I love you soooooooooooo much,we are very proud of you,I cant explain my feelings about you,Ijust can say I love you & I try to be like you.
I hope to see you soon on the Earth

I don’t know if you read this at all. We are proud of you. Only a smart Iranian girl can come up with such a great idea and accomplish that. You gave hope and self confidence to many people including women, Iranians and Americans. You gave the best message of peace to this crazy world which is full of hate and war.
I wish you the best,
Arash
